A 'propeller shaped' flywheel can store rotational energy, which when converted into thrust, launches it high into the sky!

Doing spectrum analysis on the sound at full power revealed that the rotational speed just after lift off is 4280 RPM (214 Hz) [listed in video 4340 RPM, within 1%] While just before the lift off it was 4620 RPM (231 Hz) That is a a 7% loss of energy due to the lift off mechanism. Probably it will be more efficient when the angle of the red and blue mechanism is more favorable.

When it's launched at 40º, at 3:58 in the video, as it glides, it flattens out and turns to the right. This is because as it starts to move forward, the blade that is sweeping forward generates more lift that the blade that is receding. Gyroscopic precession then rotates the disc flatter and to the right, causing the levelling off and turning that you see. This is something that happens to helicopters when they move forward, called "Asymmetry of lift" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetry_of_lift. The pilot can correct for it to a certain extent, but it limits the maximum overall speed of the helicopter.

@vernscheck2658
@vernscheck2658 3 года назад
Tom, years ago when when I was pretty young. For my birthday I received a helicopter that worked on a similar inertia principal. The one difference was that using a pull string launcher the blades were designed to spin up flat. In the hub there were springs that were stretched as the revolutions increased. At launch you would aim the helicopter at maybe a 30 degree angle so that it would fly away from the launcher and travel possibly 150-180 feet or so And then return like a boomerang and land at your feet. As the blades started to slow, the stretched springs would begin to relax plulling the blades into more pitch in order to keep the helicopter flying. A really cool toy. Too bad I couldn't have purchased one to put away until I was older. I have searched far and wide but no one makes it anymore. Gotta go, my dog is bugging me for lunch. Cheers.

Another fun video, thanks! You had a slide about rotational energy. Another thing to consider when designing propeller driven stuff is that all other things being held constant, a prop's power goes up by RPM cubed (HP2 = HP1 (RM2^3/RM1^3). If you hold RPM constant, power goes up by diameter (D) to the fifth power (HP2 = HP1 (D2^5/D1^5)). Keep on experimenting!

Nice work Tom. In the sport of clay pigeon shooting, there is a very elite form of target, the “ helice” sometimes called “ ZZbird”. It is a spinning propellor not unlike your device here and launches in the same way. The launcher has a limited rotation powered base, and the whole machine is concealed behind a screen to the shooter has no idea of which direction it is going until it appears. The propellor has a friction fit ring on it, and if it is struck by pellets, the ring detaches and the shooter gets a point. Have a look at this, it might be interesting for you.

Flywheels are most efficient when they have a large mass around the outer ring. You should try attaching some thick dense metal around the ring of the propeller. The best part about that is having it there won't increase friction, just inertia, so you can spin it up to just as high an rpm (though it will take longer to do) and it will maintain a high speed for longer.

I think part of the reason this doesn't fly so high is the geometry of that outer disk. You mentioned in the horizontal test that the plastic versions have that outer ring that acts as a bit of an airfoil; this same idea applies to the vertical test too. The plastic versions have the outer ring presenting a point towards the leading edge, while yours has a flat band presenting towards the leading edge. You should try 3d printing a sort of molding that screws against your outer ring to give it a more aerodynamic shape and revisit the vertical tests!

It would be nice to see something with some kind of mechanics(could be a servo or even a spring, but it might be hard to find the perfect strength) that can pull weight closer to the center, so if you can spin it up to some speed and launch, it can accelerate(with servos), or maintain its speed for longer(when using springs, and they start pulling the weight in as it starts slowing down). Keep up the good work, love your videos

No real dangerous ticks in the UK. Don't wear shorts walking through it though, you end up with legs cut to ribbons by the 'blades' of grass. I made that mistake as a child, and it hurt for hours.

The noise is everything but how could one make it steerable? With that amount of travel horizontally couldn’t you try to steer it away from ground and start trading speed for altitude?

Problem is, it's basically one giant gyroscope. It would be quite tricky to make it change orientation

It spins too fast to put effective control surfaces on it. It would just cancel itself out constantly as it spins to the other side of the disk.

This was amazing to watch! The large spinner, when it hopped the fence and just kept going, reminded me of those dual blade spinning drones the bad guys flew in the Incredibles movie! Maybe you could adapt the design to have one prop spin one way, and another prop geared to spin the opposite way, and have it self stabilise, but still launched off the single motor? Either way, great video, and makes me want to go out and buy a spinner now 🙈

Regarding the semi-horizontal launches: The thing will eventually turn vertical due to rotor dynamics if it has sufficient launch altitude for this to happen before it hits the ground. As it begins to "slide" downward after lauch, advancing blades gain airspeed, while retreating blades lose airspeed. This causes the advancing blades to increase lift (and retreating ones to decrease). Due to precession, this causes the forward edge of the rotor to lift, causing it to transition to a vertical direction. This is the same thing that causes a boomerang to turn, and why they go upward and stall if you throw them sidearm.

Back in the USSR, we had such toys with a manual starter and a plastic spinner, if you start it at home, then the spinner rested with a cone against the ceiling and spun there and then descended to the bottom :-)

You shoud do this same project, but have another one counter-rotating to cancel out the yawing it would also effectively double the trust or kinda double the flight time.

At a young age of building things I was given a dremmel tool set. Did not take me long to put one of the toy rotors like that on the dremmel, wind up to high speed. Now I did understand centrifugal force so I never spun up to the full RPM, and i had to stop the chuck by hand cause I knew would destroy the chuck lock. But dam they launched very high, and I lost the rotor in a field. End of experiment. Lucky didn't explode in my face.

Only way I can think of improving it is making it more similar to the plastic ones. The outer surface is probably slowing it down a bit, and like you mentioned in the video, with the smaller ones, the outside surface acted as a wing to a certain degree

tom if you curve the rim out to make a deducted fan you receive much more lift as fast air passing over the sloped surface creates a lower pressure than the area underneath the curve

I think like a first one is vertical corner to help it going to more hight but which you made you spinner has horizontal corner the horizontal corner has resist more air then the first one which have vertical corner ( means which spiner has vertical corner is going to hight )
